PSNI Recruitment 1710 Campaign

If I can give any advice. Practice your side steps (like footballers do with cones).
In the PCA video the woman runs and turns around each cone after the wall.
You don't have to do it that way. Side stepping is ALOT quicker. Just set up some empty bottles in your kitchen or garden and practice

Banterbus how are your two yellow mates feeling about the exams this week?

Don't keep track of them lol as they don't me pestering then in an already stressful environment.

Plus if they do have exams this week why would I add additional stress to them?

Considering you get two chances at each exam phase. If you fail the 2nd attempt that's you back squaded or binned.

Be disrespectful for me to do so.

Bit of an odd question matey.

Was only asking as I'm sitting them myself lol. Probably also mates with your mates

Real friends should be able to make the time for you Banter.

I pester my mates with random questions constantly. Lol

Question for serving constables.

Jobs like Youth Diversion Officer are they actual specialist roles or do you still work in your section but are nominated a youth diversion officer?

Or similar jobs like it.

Just following back to somones post about districts. Somone has said that lurgan was the response station in that district so that’s where you would be heading. Does anyone know what the response station is in the rest of the districts.?

That's not necessarily so. Using the Lurgan example I know of at least one person going to another station in the same district.

23 days to go.....

You can appeal in your station in last couple of weeks in GV as they do give you some time to try and organise your life. And you can also appeal after 6 months I believe of you were originally unsuccessful.

Ards for North Down

Lisburn of Castlereagh

Newtownabbey for Antrim and Newtownabbey.

Well..... Not exactly true..... Far be it from me to ever doubt the accuracy of your information xxx

For instance PSNI's website would suggest that LPTs are based at both Newtownabbey *and* Antrim.

Check out the link to see where your LPTs/response teams are based. However, usually probationer constables are sent to the one station, *usually* but not always.

Cheers. Smothering else to consider. I thought if you picked a district it was a lotto and also what station was a random as well.

Once in your station you can ask to move. There was talk on this board previously, on this thread actually that people in Newry have asked to move to Downpatrick. I think its 20/30 pages back or so maybe.

Obviously all the Belfast LPT stations all have response sections.

The other Belfast stations are host to specialist sections. CID, TSG home stations, serious organised crime, Cyber etc etc

I think because Lisburn and Castlereagh are Urban they have response in both stations.
